As a part of my inverter replacement I have pulled everything out of my front bay. Over the years I have added a bunch of circuits and added components (problem with doing inverter, solar, and lithium in three different projects) and it was all kind of hacked together. I figured now would be the time, and I pulled out the batteries, charge converter, DC to DC charger, and the bus bars I have added over the last few years. When I added my circuits I just added inline fuse connectors and tied them to the hot bus bar from the factory with the self resetting circuit breakers. I am thinking of adding something like this to clean up my install:
It will take up to 100 amps, and individual circuits of 30A. I was debating whether to ditch my self resetting circuit breakers and move those loads to this fuse panel. All of them are below 30 amps except one that's 50 (I assume the one that feeds the main fuse panel inside). I figured I would keep that one separate. Any thoughts on replacing the others with fuses rather than the self resetting breakers? I realize if they pop I will need to change them out, but that should not really be an issue I would not think?
